Reflection - Scott

Clement Scott

Reflect on at least three takeaways that you learned from creating your project.

1. I learned how to take senses from certain moments and recreate them using a physical model

2. I learned how to use the laser cutter tool.

3. I got better at analyzing and breaking down stories.

Explain what was difficult for you during this process and why.

Personally, the hard part of this project was the beginning. We were doing all these assignments and we were told these would help with our interviews with the residents at the Scandinavian living center. There were 2 which helped with the interview but the rest just seemed like randomly assigned tasks to help fill in the gaps. It was difficult because I needed more time to decide what I really wanted to do with my project and have more time to just brainstorm.

Talk about feedback that you received and how you were able to incorporate that into your process.  

Getting consistent feedback was a struggle. I went to three different teachers hoping they could give me something helpful which they did; however the next teacher contradicted what the previous one had said and so on. I did recieve some good feedback when we had the scandinavian residents come over to see what we had made. The feedback came from teachers that werent part of the project but actually proved incredibly helpful. Unfortunatly by then it was too late to make any changes to our project so if we had a bit more time we could implement those changes. In the end I got good feedback but it was too late to change anything.
